GODLY AUDIENCES: SASUKE UCHIHA

[divus]

Comments

friday bc it's hilarious

[moralmyopia]

[WOW, mistakes were made.]

As long as it isn't me. [He's already been... bugging himself. Almost literally? He not only looks different, but seems different. For one, he's in a very stupid ass outfit from the costume hall.

Secondly, he's hunched and burrowed in the layers like he might be cold.] I came to tell you I'm defecting.

[divus]

Nooo promises. [But the mood goes still and more serious, since he was sort of expecting this.]

I sort of figured. [He doesn't seem bothered by this either.] Do you know where you're going next?

[moralmyopia]

[Both hands hang in the pockets of his pants. He keeps his head somewhat down, his eyes, too, for a long moment without saying anything.]

Back to Justice.

[divus]

That I can accept. [Though...] Have you told him yet?

[moralmyopia]

Yeah.

[On their little stupid family outing. It's fine. His eyes finally lift.]

Why?

[divus]

Oh, no reason. Just curious. [He's worried about the baby, shut up.] ...what have you learned this week?

[moralmyopia]

[Very briefly, one shoulder lifts.]

It was the worst week of my life.

[IS HE JOKING???? His tone is so dry. But he's lived through some Shit, so... probably not that bad.]

[divus]

Because your own curse backfired on you? [:) But also, Sasuke's in one piece and Merriment's happy with that.]

[moralmyopia]

[Sasuke's face falls flat, and then it crumples into something exasperated.]

Shut it. Only because that damn moron ruined everything as usual.

[divus]

Gonna explain this week's logic to me or am I supposed to guess?

[moralmyopia]

[His sigh is quiet. His brows don't unknot.]

It's easy for him to talk to people. [This sounds... strangely resentful for some reason. Jealousy, maybe?] And I know he talks to a lot of people.

I wanted to see what connections he had. Who he spent his time with.

[But then Senri decided to not really touch many other people except him, and Takaomi, god dammit. Now everyone is going to know they sent curfew together.]

[divus]

[...Sasuke what in the fuck.]

And you couldn't have just, oh, I don't know...asked? [It's not that judgmental but also Sasuke what.] Seems like the sort of thing that could've been solved a lot easier.

[moralmyopia]

[listen,,,]

No. He's an actor. It's easy for him to lie, and I don't trust he would tell me everything.

[divus]

So you thought you'd deceive him to get your answers. Got it, makes complete sense. [Dumb...]

Are you going to use Justice's abilities for the same strategy?

[moralmyopia]

[very dumb so he deserved this]

I'm not saying I won't.

[divus]

...explain something to me. Which power would you pick? You probably know the set by now.

[moralmyopia]

It depends on what happens this weekend. [He glances up.] Supreme Authority more than likely. Maybe Inner Strength.

[divus]

[...] You might have more leeway with the first than the second, but that's just my opinion on things. Strength is likely to make you more suspicious.

[moralmyopia]

I don't care about suspicion. [He had been gunning for it for so long, right.] It could potentially help me if anyone targeted me.

Are gods able to tell their followers what the division of powers are in that alignment?

[divus]

Or it could backfire. Do we need to point out what just happened to you? [Be smarter, jeez.]

But what exactly do you mean?

[moralmyopia]

The power division.

If I ask you to tell me how many followers have what power, would you? I had Chilled Bones, so there's one. How many others had the other two? How many had All Nighter? Did anyone have Laughter?

Heh. [His laugh is wry.] You can't tell me, I assume.

[divus]

Oh no, no, I could. I'm just not going to when you're defecting next week.

[So there.]

[moralmyopia]

[Hmm. Faintly, he smirks.]

That's fine. I'm not concerned about yours now.

[divus]

Then why are you still here, Sasuke? Why tell me all of this and that you're defecting?

[moralmyopia]

Supposedly, we're meant to talk to all of you. It's what I'm doing. [badly but listen maybe merriment isn't the only one not completely living up to the name] But I can leave if you want.

You told me to join you, but never told me to stay. I would have gone back to him in the end.
